[ghc-steering-committee] GHC 20xx process

[Simon Peyton Jones]

I believe that we have a consensus in favour of acceptance, using Alternative 1.

Yell if you disagree; but otherwise Joachim you can merge.

|  In my message of 4 Nov, I asked for feedback within "a week or two".
|  Let's set a deadline of the end of this week.
|  
|  All: please respond before then, if you want to.
|  
|  I don't think this is terribly controversial, so I'll take silence as
|  assent.
|  
|  All this assuming we adopt Alternative 1.

|  |  thanks, also for making me get more clarity on this as well.
|  |
|  |  Is anyone still preferring Alternative 2, or should we take it off
|  | the  table?

|  |  It seems that now is a good time to then actually do the first
|  | iteration of  the process – the State of Haskell survey data, once
|  | out, will be fresh, and  we'd be well in time for inclusion in the
|  | Spring release of GHC, likely 9.1  (unless the 9.0 delay shifts
|  things
|  | around… oh well, let’s just make sure we  have GHC2021 defined
|  before
|  | or near the start of 2021, not late in that year
|  |  :-))
|  |
|  |  Cheers,
|  |  Joachim
